He was just laughing his head off after tasting it, James. It stank very strong and awful. Imagine a few pi$$heads using toilet repeatedly during their hard core bender with hard liquor on rocks all night. If you walk past that gents toilet, the smell of the concentrate (urine contents combined with alcohol) will blow you away! Cow's pee stank like that. Really revolting.
Did he have it on the rocks?

Yeah, yeah. The yogi insisted upon meditating on top of the ancient toad rock at scenic Mt. Abu, so Seb also had to climb up; in order to have a swig off his bottle. So basically, it was altogether "on the rocks" experience for the kid.

Do any of you people drink fruity teas?
I've just made my daughter a mug of Diplomat Calming Camomile Tea. She's a bit restless with job hunting on laptop, bashing her guitar strings, texting her mates while watching TV at the same time (multi-tasking as usual
), so she needed that tea to calm down.
Not sure if it will work, but I have to say that this Aldi sold Camomile tea is heavenly aromatic! Actually, better aroma than the Twining whining one, and it's from Aldi for 89p- for a pack of 40.
I highly recommend it.

Great product and good value! I've just eaten a bar Fin Carre whole nut chocolate that cost half as much as a Cadbury equivalent and tastes twice as good. Apart from the fact that one has to rub shoulders with poor people and foreigners, is there a reason not to shop there? What's the catch?
I, for the first time, ate two mini milk chocolates from Lidl on Sunday evening. I have to say I was very impressed. I must go to Lidl sometimes, as since I've discovered Aldi, I never go to Lidl. It was the kids who bought some picnic-on-the-beach food for themselves at Lidl and then snacked the remains while watching Zero Dark Thirty in the lounge. Luckily, they unawarely left two mini bars in an almost empty cardboard packaging, which made me think of giving them a try. Very nice.
Oh, if I see any foreigners like myself in Lidl and if they tell me that they rub their shoulders with a poor white English fella called James Taylor & Co., I'll tell them that yes, I know him of of scoobynet.

I do notice that the Car Parks of Aldi, Lidl et al are always full of new cars - now are people spending too much money on cars and can only afford to buy stuff there or have they saved so much they can buy new cars.....me I drive a 16 year old and 15 year old cars but at least I can afford to eat the Horse meat stuff from Tesco's.

I knew of a beggar who once won a lottery. He spent his winning in buying a Ferrari and still does his daily begging rounds with his one hand hanging out of his car window, with a begging bowl held in his palm.

Oh, one more thing. I also tried doughnut peaches from Lidl (part of the remains from the kids' beach food). I've never eaten such sweet doughnut peaches in my whole life! Well nice! So, whoever said on initial pages that fruit n' veg from Lidl are rubbish need to make a correction.
